1) My Richter family lived in Nosowicze, Poland on the Russian side of
Poland after the 1939 partitioning of Poland between Germany and Russia. They
were resettled on a 200 acre farm in Jurgenrode, Gemeinde Rodau, Kreis
Warthbrucken in 1940. Is there information, perhaps on line, that explains the basis
for determining how housing, land, etc., was awarded during the resettlement?
I visited this area in 2000 and the village name of Jurgenrode has been
changed to the Polish name of Josefkof (sp).
2) My fathers half brother, Siegmund Lockstein, was killed in 1945 shortly
after the end of the war. He also lived in this area which is near Klodawa,
Poland. The family story is that he was executed in the back yard by Russian
military police for reasons not clear to me. Is it likely that such events
were recorded in civil records? Does anyone know of a web site or other means
of getting information of this kind of event?
3) I have obtained a copy of my grandmothers birth record, written in
Polish. Is there a Polish speaking person on the List that can help me with
translating this into English?
Any help, comments, suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Heinrich Richter
